Flashback Mini Delay
Flashback Mini Delay is a modern twist on the know-how and legacy of TC Electronic’s legend­ary 2290 delay, featuring seven seconds of delay and a cherry-picked selection of the very best delay sounds out there.
Dazzling delays for days
From amazing reproductions of tape and ana­log echoes to a dedicated 2290 setting: Flash­back Mini Delay is the complete package. We truly love delay sounds (after all, they made TC what we are today), so Flashback Mini Delay is our ode to all that makes delay sounds so great.
Simply strum to sync
Audio tapping allows you to set your delay times fast, accurately, on the fly and hassle-free, so you can immediately get back to the fun par t: playing! Syncing up with your band, backing track or the tempo in your head is a natural and intuitive thing: Just strum the tempo with your guitar – and Flashback does the rest.
True Bypass
Here at TC, we have a simple philosophy: When you are using one of our products, you should hear something great – and if you don’t, you shouldn’t hear it at all. This is why this pedal sports True Bypass. When it is bypassed, it is really off and has zero influence on your tone, re­sulting in optimum clarity and zero loss of high­end.
You will also be delighted to hear (literally) that this TC Electronic effect pedal will let your dry, unprocessed sound pass without ever convert­ing it to digital – keeping your original tone pure and without any latency. This feature is called
analog dry-through.
